Mayo Chiki Review — F

This is the harem adaptation of the season. The main twist is that we have a cross-dressing butler. Except it’s completely obvious that she’s a girl. How can anyone be fooled by this? Besides, she isn’t nearly as cute as Hayate.

The other characters include a monstrous little sister, a girl obsessed with glasses, a tsundere, and an ojou-sama. The male protagonist is a spineless wuss.

The main reason I managed to finish this show is Kanade. She’s quite the ojou-sama, and at least managed to spice things up a bit. Still, it wasn’t enough to save Mayo Chiki from its own bland premise.

Haha, she actually bothered me the least. I couldn’t stand the glasses girl (why does she even exist?) and the butler the most. Although for the butler it’s not really because of her, it’s more because they were trying to put her into a serious relationship (“pseudo-romance” as you so nicely phrased it) which failed miserably.
